Hi dear,

Well to crack SBI clerk exam first of all I would advice you to go for a good coaching institute. If you are not getting any good coaching specially for SBI clerk exam I would suggest you to go for an MBA coaching institute like IMS,TIME etc since they have some similar content

Books to refer:

Now coming to the books part. There are lots of books available but choosing the right one is important. You can go for
a book by Dhillon group Kilt for Bank exam

You can even subscribe to monthly magazines which will help you more as you will get latest updates on monthly basis.

Thats for the test part. Now coming to the "How to prepare for the interview"

There is no such fix formula to crack an interview. Its just that you have to be yourself. Dont fake around. Keep yourself updated about the latest current and past affairs. You can even join a coaching for interview learning purpose

So prepare hard for the entrance test and dont worry you can do it!
Thanks

Re: How to prepare for SBI clerk exam?

to clear SBI clerk first you have to improve your general knowledge.

to improve general knowledge try to read newspaper regularly. try to collect information about the recent topic of discussion. buy books from market for general knowledge.


to improve reasoning part buy good book and practice it. a good book for bank exam is reasoning by R. S. Agarwal. you may buy it for reasoning.

to improve mathematics part just do practice very much. only practice can make you strong in mathematics.

these are sufficient for the written examination.


for interview first you have to improve your english communication skill and the general knowledge and your personality. to improve english read english newspaper. try to speak in english with the friends and others who knows english.

best wishes.

Re: How to prepare for SBI clerk exam?

hi!

To prepare for english section of bank clerk exam you should lay emphasis on reading comprehension as 10-15 questions are based on it. Solving previous years question paper will give you an idea about the type of questions coming in the exam. To strenghten your vocabulary refer word power by norman lewis.

The general knowledge section of the bank clerk exam consists of questions on current affairs, Banking & finance, general science & sometimes marketing aptitude. The GK section gives maximum weightage to questions on current affairs. For GK you should refer pratiyogita darpan. Also make a habit of reading newspaper daily.
